I just use them in a defuser cus they smell good
Me too.
Essential oils are similar to the weather. Bright sunny days tend to keep people happy and in good spirits. If it rains, people are typically down and depressed. It does work if smells typically change your mood in any setting. People love morning dew because its refreshing and a great way to start the day.
Essential oils have bio-chemical reactions. Just like medicine. It's not just a nice smell reaction.
Just because something says essential oil doesn't mean they are
I was putting neurogin cream on my legs then I looked at the ingredients just to see what was in it because it was very expensive. I found things like peppermint, tea tree, menthol, lavender and other ingredients. So years ago I started making my own blends with EOs to help my neuropathy. So yes they do work and these “flowers” and “trees” are in many of our over the counter creams and rubs. You just don’t know because you never looked closely at the label. But there is good advice in this video. Also, Do your research!!!
This was a quick & interesting. I liked how this video encouraged diluting essential oils (instead of applying them directly on the skin).
Still in pyramids there were Essential oils which are still good and best in qualities which gives us a simple idea that essential oils never expire but if you doesn't store it correctly they will vaporized not "Expire" !
Anything close to modern day distilling didn't happen until about 1,000 years AD.
@@robertolson3115 well I have been to pyramids though 😄
How long does it take to flush out ingested oils, since I swallowed oils one time Ive suffered from severe skin sensitivity
you will still have the sensitivity. Essential Oils are extremely potent. When it comes to the internal use of essential oils, it can be extremely dangerous which is why EVERY aromatherapy association out there won't recommend the internal usage to the public. For internal usage you need to consult an Aromatic Medicine Practitioner. This is an accredited Clinical Aromatherapist who has undergone further training in the usage of internal delivery methods of oils.
@@toonafish1634 - Essential oils are toxic. Stay away from them.
@@CerberusBindeweed anyone recommending that you ingest them is an idiot.
the FDA doesn't regulate these products
I don't trust the FDA.
I have to bring it up, but the background music reminds me soo much of Stranger Things!!
...because theres a synth?
DO NOT INGEST ESSENTIAL OILS!! Your tummy will feel sad afterward.
Strange. I drink 2 drops per day of thyme essential oil and my stomach doesn't feel upset, despite having a very sensitive stomach :)
@@mysterypetal6196 Why are you taking thyme essential oil internally?
@@CerberusBindeweed I am trying to enhance my immune system. Hoping it works
@@mysterypetal6196 - You fell for a corporate lie. They only want your money, and don't care if you get sick.
@@mysterypetal6196 the best thing to improve our immune system is to sleep well, according a neuroscientist there are a direct relationship between a right level of our Immune system and the hour that we sleep well at night. She recommends not take caffeine, tein, sugar drinks after 18h and also large amounts of water if it makes you wake up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. She also says that choose a comfy pajama that do not tighten the body and turn off all the lights, because there is a sensorial system in our eyelid that only causes the body to release the hormone of deep sleep when it detects full darkness in the environment. ctro that referred to melatonin.
She also insisted that leaves the mobile phone out of the bedroom and never under the pillow or bedside table, because our mind don't really disconnected and remains in constant alarm state, waiting for the next notification. Those things are bad for our immune system response right the next day and also make our cognitive response slowly.
Loaded with harmful VOCs. Avoid inhalation!!!

Is it okay to vape them?
@John thanks
No- dude no.
Just don’t vape.
no, you need their consent first
@@billjoe39 bruh
are they really organic? scientific evidence?
Plastic is organic. Jet fuel is organic. Soap is organic. Any molecule that is carbon based is termed as "organic" in chemistry. So yes, they are.
@@andrew-hv1hv so when they say its organic food its just a lie. Kinda like freerange chickens.
@@carsonrutz9659 pretty much. In fact free range chickens could mean the chickens are given time outside, just not all the time. Meaning there is probably a small pen that is exposed outdoors but they are not really free to roam about.
@@carsonrutz9659 Chickens and other foods are unrelated to the definition used above. Above is the chemical definition of organic which is carbon based molecules. Foods have a different definition of “organic” that is related to pesticide use and other additives. Not sure how well defined it is by the fda as that is outside my area of expertise.
Keep putting essential oils on your skin and then complain your skin is terrible. DO NOT USE UNDILUTED ESSENTIAL OILS ON YOUR SKIN REGARDLESS OF WHAT IT IS FROM! You can use oils on your hair but not directly on your skin, as a matter fact I don't recommend you use them at all on your skin only in a humidifier, but if your still going to use it the minimum ratio should be 10 drops in a flowing ounce of water. Just so you understand in broad terms, to make a pound of essential oil ( that depends on what essential oil your making because it may vary depending on the plant) but a pound of essential oil is roughly 0.12 gallons. To make this amount of lavender oil you need 120 plants of lavender and this plants are at least 3ft tall and 5ft wide. Just consider the concentration and you are planning to put that in your protection organ which is your skin. Essential oils are also very sensitizing and can create horrible Acute Dermatitis, prolong Erythema after touching your skin, cause Eczema and Psoriasis flares etc. Fragrance is the leading cause of allergic reactions on skin and just because something is natural it does not mean is safer. It's Arsenic, Hemlock, Poison Ivy are natural and the dosage makes the poison too, if you drink enough water you can die too. Essential oils are perfect for aromatherapy not skin care. Skin care companies save their butts because they write in small letters in the back of the label "patch test first" so when somebody has a huge reaction they defend themselves saying that they always tell their costumers to patch test before using their product
They’re toxic.

I feel this video is too short to describe the uses and benefits of essential oils. There are many more details and studies done...by doctors and their peers about the safety, efficacy, safety, and history...they've been used for thousands of years.....
Would you rather have a large percent of patients come into your office who really don't need to be there...and that are always requesting antibiotics.....that are being prescribed too much...???
Todays modern essential oils have not been used for thousands of years like the the major companies teach. It would be approx 1000 years after Christ before anything similar to our modern distilling came to exist. Todays EOs are highly concentrated high VOC plant derived solvents unlike anything people used in the biblical days.
@@robertolson3115 They still have been used in different forms for thousands of years. They didn't have distilling equipment but resins etc. were made into anointing oils etc. I realize today's oils are much, much different. Some are made very carefully and are not bad for you....if used in the correct way
Essential oils are considered an important part of your routine
Please stop polluting the air with this ridiculous craze. If you want them for your self, fine. But treat them the same way you would cigarettes. Don't force others to breath your toxic high VOC essential oils.
By who? Facebook moms?
Two false statements in this video:
* essential oils should never be ingested
* essential oils cannot replace medications
You must have drank too much essential oils'.
True, essential oils have medicinal properties.
Right on !! thanks !
But replace ?
Yeah I know its 1 year old@@thomasjaviez233
